Guberniya was a major administrative subdivision of the Imperial Russia, usually translated as province or Governorate General. A gubernia was ruled by a governor (gubernator, in Russian language). Sometimes this term was informally used to refer to the office of a governor.
This subdivision existed after the Russian Revolution for some time, but eventually was replaced by oblasts.
